For our customers and everyone who has to deal with dangerous goods transports, placards or labels of any kind, we now offer a short and concise guide for the correct application and removal of dangerous goods labels. Because – we never tire of pointing it out – dangerous goods labels are much more than labels.

Labels must comply with numerous legal regulations. And not only under laboratory conditions. Seawater certification, for example, even according to the strict BS 5609 Section III, which our BOXLAB labels meet, the placards cannot be applied to the container if it has not been cleaned appropriately beforehand, or if the placard has been applied too tentatively or with air bubbles.

Seawater certification alone, which our BOXLAB labels naturally meet, is not enough to be on the safe side when handling placards. If, for example, the substrate is not cleaned appropriately before application or the placard is applied too tentatively or with air bubbles, there is a risk that it will not adhere sufficiently. The strict durability rules are not adhered to in this way.

Therefore, in addition to the highest quality standards for the product itself, a correspondingly uniform procedure is also required for labeling.

BOXLAB Services offers you practical tools for this purpose, enabling you to carry out the labeling process with the same quality every time. And best of all, the process is optimized not only in terms of quality but also in terms of time. For example, despite pre-cleaning and the use of a squeegee to apply the label correctly, it takes hardly any more time than if you tried to stick the placard on directly.

In addition, the process and tools can also be used on conventional labels. Due to the material-protecting nature of the safety scraper and our BOXLAB cleaner, which is based on bio-alcohol, these products can be used on a wide variety of substrates, even sensitive ones, without any bends.

Possible applications therefore include:

Window labeling, vehicle foiling or similar.
